SOLAR LIGHT MANAGEMENT

摘要

A translucent construction element comprising a layer of translucent substrate, which contains a surface structured with nanoplanes of inclined angle relative to the substrate plane, and coated with an interrupted metallic layer covering at least a part of said nanoplanes, is characterized by a high density of interruptions in the metallic layer of low thickness; the periodicity of interruptions in the metallic layer generally is from the range 50 to 1000 nm and the thickness of the metallic layer typically is from the range 1 to 50 nm. The construction element may be integrated, for example, into windows, plastic films or sheets or glazings, especially for the purpose of light management.
